FAT FOLKS ARE SLOWER THINKERS



TORONTO (Wireless Flash) – Calling someone a fathead may be an insult but it may also have a basis in science. According to a new study from the University of Toronto, fat folks are slower thinkers than skinny ones. Researchers studied more than 38,000 people, and overweight and obese people had slower cognitive abilities than thin people. The fatties are also more likely to gripe about pain that affects their mobility, and are also more likely to need wheelchairs or walkers.
